WOLFY CARRYING THE WHOLE FANDOM ON THEIR BACK. THIS IS AMAZING

The smile at 1:43 is a sweet touch. Actually Odysseus looks so hopeful in this. Like he still looks tired and a bit sad, but he's constantly smiling.

ODYSSEUS' SMILE WHEN POLITES SHOWED UP, MY HEART ;-; also Polites covering his ears and the expression he made when Eurylochus suggested violence was so cute
ALSO ALSO the flashes to Scylla, Charybdis, and Polyphemus gave me a lil shiver of anticipation ngl
Wonderful as always Wolfy

[aliceinwonderbruh]

Does anyone else notice that Odysseus smiles at the thought of Penelope, Polites, not being on a boat, and food

[madisyngolab]

Ok but I love how not only does Odysseus smile with Polites, but the little smile when he sings about Penelope and how hopeful he looks to be getting home it just

[makaramuss]

I am back after Vengeance saga to hear my precious crew :(

[beate]

I've been listening to Epic songs the entire day, so lets continue shall we? Full speed ahead!

[epicgirlwarrior]

Love the depiction of Odysseus's eagerness and desperation to get home at 0:36 to 0:43. Of course he wants to get back to his home, to his kingdom. Buts it's at the mention of Penelope, that the desperation takes hold for a few seconds, where he looks like a man who would do almost anything, even jump off the boat and leave his men behind, just to get home to her. Absolutely love it

[huskyspot]

they all look so happy, I hope nothing horribly tragic happens, especially to the glasses wearing cinnamon bun known as Polities! (shoves the Cyclops saga in a bag with locks under the bed) I LOVE HOW ODYSSEUS IS THE SHORTEST.

On another note, first of all, your animatic is mindblowingly amazing, as always. The range of emotion and the little details in how they all move is perfect! And it's really cool that you included the twin tree bed, that was a cool reference to the original myth.

2:07 "polities gear up"
Polities : *packs 600 friendship bands*

[abbster]

Also I love Eurylochus’s face at 2:40 he’s just like “why am I the one dealing with these idiots”

[OrcaMorca]

Freaking Polities expressions when they talk about raiding the island.
"Really Eurylochus? Infront of my salad!?" vibes.

Holy shit I followed the process on twitter, this turned out SO well!

[dudaoxo]

00:48 HIS SMILE OMG HE THINK HES GONNA BE HOME SOON HE DONT KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEND-

[sprucerupper]

This is so beautiful! The flashes of what’s to come when Odysseus sings “it’s what lies inbetween” have me worried 😱 if only Odysseus wasn’t doomed 😞

[eleanormyers]

The fact that the most replayed part of this animation is the part where Polites comes in speaks volumes 🥲

[Figures-yg]

1:33 “We’re off we’re off and away we go” 🔥🔥🗣️

[agnieszkakmieciak]

I absolutely adore the fact that we're able to HEAR Odysseus's smile when he greets Polites. And it's not a small smile! Nuh-uh! It's clearly a face-splitting grin of happiness. It's so sweet!❤

[jeffreygrimes]

I'm so glad you are making these animations! I love Epic so much and love seeing your beautiful visual representations, so thanks!😁

[abbster]

i LOVE the fact that you can just hear the smile in Odysseus’s voice when he says “Polites”, it’s SO FREAKING CUTE
